The ideal candidate is a forward-thinking, hands-on leader who thrives on developing people, takes ownership and action rather than waiting for direction, and approaches every challenge as an opportunity to solve problems creatively and effectively. Key Responsibilities

Team Development & Leadership

Actively coach, mentor, and grow team members — creating individual development plans, providing regular feedback, and offering stretch assignments that build capability and confidence.

Recognize and reward initiative, and create a safe environment for experimentation, including with new technologies.

Anticipate risks and opportunities ahead of time rather than reacting after the fact, drive issues to resolution quickly and decisively.

Lead and manage the full month-end close process, proactively identifying and resolving bottlenecks before they impact deadlines.

Design, implement, and monitor robust internal controls, continuously looking for root causes of issues rather than just symptoms.

AI & Process Innovation

Champion the adoption of AI, automation, and advanced analytics to streamline financial reporting, forecasting, and reconciliation processes. Identify practical use cases where AI can reduce manual effort, improve accuracy, or accelerate decision-making, and lead their implementation in partnership with IT. Prepare, review, and deliver accurate, AI-enhanced financial reports and insights to senior leadership and stakeholders. Core Finance Responsibilities

Lead the preparation of budgets, forecasts, and financial presentations, providing clear, actionable explanations to management.

Solid understanding of GAAP, internal controls frameworks, and financial reporting standards.
